Reason: Over the past few weeks, this page has been constantly vandalised by different users from different IP addresses. They don't have any account on Wikipedia. I don't know whether it is the same person or different persons, but they are constantly vandalising the box office number of the films. I have tried to warn a few of them using vandalism templates of levels 1,2 and 3. But the disruptive edits don't seem to stop.
In this space of box office of Indian Bengali films, there is very less number of editors. So, I can't rule out the possibility of an important edit coming from a unregistered user with a IP address. On the other hand, it is also required to stop such disruptive edits. It is becoming really difficult to revert such edits almost daily.
Hence, I would request the administrators to provide a Pending changes level of protection to this page. If you feel right, then add maximum semi-protection to the page. Please don't add higher level of protection than this, because then, there will be very few editors left to edit "the page already edited very few editors".
I would also request to block those IP addresses because they might cause disruptive edits in the pages of the films which they don't like.

Reason: Requesting temporary semi-protection. Article has been consistently vandalized for the past several months, almost exclusively by IP editors. A majority of the recent edit log is just vandalism and reverts. CitrusHemlock 09:39, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
